As one colleague pointed out recently, there are a huge number of graduate theses on fractal antennas, from all over the globe. See for yourself-- google with "fractal antennas" "thesis" .
Could the antenna you show do the same job if it was made smaller. And in your opinion if your antenna has more mass does it hinder antenna reception or help? Is the triangular fractal better than other fractal shapes. Do you have any links to building this antenna?
Hi Timothy, This video exists is to critique and debunk a flawed study, in which this particular fractal antenna design was chosen--by the other party. When I solve antenna problems, I used the best fractal or fractals that meet that need. Sometimes its a Sierpinski like this, but that's rare. IOW for a given solution, there is a given fractal to fit that need.
See below. This is not a 'how to' piece but a debunking of a flawed study (that cited web page). Fractal antennas work great, and have the benefits so listed.
Ima, there is no absolute advantage to using these triangles. I am just debunking a study(that cited web page) that is false--apparently intentionally--in its conclusions. The way REAL fractal antennas get done is to identify the technical problem to be solved and finding the best fractal shapes that meet that solution.

Why triangle shapes?
No reason in particular--- again, this is a video to debunk someone else's flawed assertions.

interesting!
